gentoo-make-initrd-overlay

This is make-initrd ebuild repository.

Usage

  1. Add this overlay:
$ eselect repository add make-initrd-overlay git https://github.com/osboot/gentoo-make-initrd-overlay
  1. Mask sys-kernel/installkernel::gentoo to avoid accidentally switching to the original Gentoo package.
  2. Change USE flags for sys-kernel/installkernel: make-initrd -dracut, to use make-initrd instead of dracut to generate initrd.
  3. If you use either sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel or sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin kernel pacakge, change USE flags for the package: -initramfs, to avoid dependency on sys-kernel/installkernel[dracut], which exists just to ensure you do not end up without any initrd, but doesn't make sense with this overlay.
  4. Emerge sys-kernel/installkernel::make-initrd-overlay.
